Susan Sarandon rules the Cannes Film Festival red carpet,

but Woody Allen comes under fire

Susan Sarandon has opened up about Woody Allen at the Cannes Film Festival where allegations of sexual assault have been renewed against the director.Speaking at a Woman in Motion talk on Sunday, Sarandon said of Allen: "I think he sexually assaulted a child and I don't think that's right."

Sarandon, who was speaking alongside her former Thelma and Louise co-star Geena Davis, declined to comment further on the subject.That's probably a good thing as Sarandon doesn't exactly hold the moral high ground on this issue. In 1978, Susan starred in a movie called Pretty Baby with Brooke Shields. Shields was 12 years old, played a prostitute, and was shown nude. That could arguably have done more to promote pedophilia than anything Allen has done. Not that I'm defending the 'creep of the century', but maybe Susan should apologize for her involvement in Pretty Baby before criticizing others.

Allen's daughter, Dylan, with his ex-partner Mia Farrow, has accused the director of molesting her when she was seven. Allen has denied the claims.

While Sarandon didn't hold back on her feelings towards the New York-born filmmaker, 80, his star actress Lively had a completely different stance.

"It's amazing what Woody has written for women," she said, adding that the accusations of child molestation against him did not influence her decision to work with him.

"It's very dangerous to factor in things you don't know anything about. I could [only] know my experience. And my experience with Woody is he's empowering to women."

Unless that woman's name is Dylan Farrow.

"Tonight, the Cannes Film Festival kicks off with a new Woody Allen film," Farrow wrote.

"There will be press conferences and a red-carpet walk by my father and his wife (my sister). He'll have his stars at his side — Kristen Stewart, Blake Lively, Steve Carell, Jesse Eisenberg. They can trust that the press won't ask them the tough questions. It's not the time, it's not the place, it's just not done.

"That kind of silence isn't just wrong. It's dangerous. It sends a message to victims that it's not worth the anguish of coming forward. It sends a message about who we are as a society, what we'll overlook, who we'll ignore, who matters and who doesn't."

Great Quotes

Unless our hearts are filled with pain for the state of our world, we have not begun to sense the heart of God. Charles Price - Living Truth

Islamic Insanity:

“I came to the absolute conviction that it is impossible…impossible…for any human being to read the biography of Mohammed and believe in it, and then emerge a psychologically and mentally healthy person.”- Syrian Psychiatrist Dr. Wafa Sultan

Save A Child

Prayer

“There is nothing thrilling about a labouring man’s work, but it is the labouring man who makes the conceptions of the genius possible; and it is the labouring saint who makes the conceptions of his Master possible.

You labour at prayer and results happen all the time from God’s standpoint. What an astonishment it will be to find, when the veil is lifted, the souls that have been reaped by you, simply because you had been in the habit of taking your orders from Jesus Christ.”
